Fun Time - Great hike. It was cool seeing the orangutans. Be prepared for a lot of falling and sliding. Tour guides were very friendly

Challenging but worth it - a really good experience - I had a perfect day and would definitely recommend it, I saw two Orang Utans really close and lots of other monkeys and birds. The trek is challenging and not a walk in the park, so bring good shoes and a basic amount of fitness. Some ways are really steep and can be slippery. The watertaxi and the end was a nice ending to the experience. Would always do it again :)

Lucky trek in the jungle - Our guides were on time, spoke good english and were very knowledgeable about the jungle and what was inside it, they even knew the orangutans by name! The trekking was not rushed and we were allowed to go at our pace to enjoy the views. snacks and lunch were included in generous amounts and were all fresh and tasty. recommended!

Great service!! Superb tour! - The tour was really fantastic! We have seen a lot of monkeys, including the primeval guru. Lunch was included and delicious fresh fruit! Our guides hendrik and john could tell us a lot and were a nice duo. The organization is also top! You could ask them anything and they are very, very helpful. They could arrange anything for you; from transport to tips, to anything you can think of. They are good at communication and can speak English. Definitely recommended!!

Why you should go jungle trekking - Our couple took 1 day jungle trekking. Guide Jhony and Ulis explained everything in the jungle based on their expertise in the jungle. My English was fluent and there was no problem with delivery. We've observed ten orange monkeys in three areas, a silvered leaf monkey, an extinct tomas leaf monkey, a big tail monkey and, fortunately, a jungle turtle. I also tested rubber from rubber. The fruit and lunch and the pineapple I ate during the trek were all great. It was also a great pleasure to cool your warm body in a river and have 20 minutes of dynamic rafting. We don't disclose the trekking price, but it's fairly reasonable

Amazing, unforgettable! - The trek in the jungle was great, well organise and the guide was knowledgeable. The fruit and lunch was provided which was just amazing after a physical walk. The cherry on the cake was the water rafting in the end. We 've seen a lot of orangutan. Worth every penny and fully recommend.

Great tour, I’d recommend spending a few nights - Dolat and John were our guides. They allowed us to see multiple orangutans and different species of animals and monkeys. Dolat spoke very solid English and both of them were very excited and eager to show us around the jungle, and they did a good job making us feel comfortable in a place we’ve never been. Unfortunately my girlfriend and I were only able to do a day trip but I’d definitely recommend spending multiple nights in the jungle so that you can see more animals. Just make sure to bring light athletic pants and bug spray.
